Hulk Hogan says he never talked to McMahon about firing

Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated is featuring an interview with Hulk Hogan talking about the backlash of his racial comments and his firing from WWE. Hogan revealed that he never actually spoke to Vince McMahon and had all interactions with Triple H.

“I never talked to Vince. The only person I talked to was Triple H. I called him and told him there was some old news coming out from when TMZ first reported the tape and there were some racial slurs on it. Triple H said, ‘OK, thanks for calling. Let me talk to Vince.’ He called me back a half hour later and he goes, ‘I’ve got some news and it isn’t good. Vince said that you need to resign.’ I never heard from Vince or talked to Vince. In the middle of the night, they just fired me. They had to do what was best for business. Triple H was telling me the USA Network was reacting very badly, and they had to make a quick decision, and that was to put me out to pasture. They were under heavy fire and they were scrambling.”
